Film-making
 | Film-making is currently under construction! This article will be unpolished, and/or missing information. |
In the pre-trolling era, Cyraxx dabbled into film-making.
Cyraxx's foray into film-making was about as successful as any other hobby he tried to turn into something profitable.
Problems
- Abhorrent camera quality; it's not uncommon for many up and coming filmmakers to not have the most up-to-date equipment but this is usually something that eventually gets improved upon as the producer learns more and more about the craft. Since Cyraxx has no money and actual drive see things through, it comes as no surprise that this wasn't rectified.
- Poor acting; It goes without saying that a good film needs a solid cast to bring the script to life. Unfortunately, Cyraxx's acting feels more like a comedy skit. He constantly stares straight into the camera and can't do anything without immediately looking back at the lens. At best, this breaks the fourth wall. At worst, it shows Chance is so focused on getting the perfect shot that he ruins the audience's suspension of disbelief.
- No Cinematography; Even if Chance's equipment was perfect, the poor cinematography ruins any sense of impact. Many are either static or shot in a lazy "vlog-style." and this amateurish camerawork seems mostly due to laziness and a lack of friends to help film.
Filmography
The Darkness
Before the film officially released 6 days later, Chance would upload a video stating that he was on the "set" for his latest movie, "The Darkness" while recording said video in his kitchen. One of the scenes of which wasn't even in the actual film.
The film starts with Chance using a Spirit box app. (A screen-recorder watermark is visible at the bottom left). We then cut to the present day. Chance wakes up on his couch, feeling confused. For a full minute and thirty seconds, he does nothing. Then, he slowly moves his hands while looking behind the camera. He gets up and the camera style changes to a vlog as Chance walks to the kitchen. It cuts to Chance opening a cabinet and looking around for a bit. He then speaks directly to the viewers which is bizarre. If there isn't a camera, Chance (the character) is just talking to himself for no reason. If there is a camera, Chance looks even more deranged because why would someone place a camera behind the cabinet and leave it running? Chance then looks around as if he heard a sound, though nothing can be heard. And an extremely loud soundbite from Michael Katana's "Help Me" suddenly plays. After Chance expresses his concern, the scene ends with him physically reaching for the "Stop Record" button on his camera. Another example of Cyraxx's brilliant editing.
Chance looks inside his fridge. He closes it after seeing it's empty. He calls his "friend" to arrange a meetup with nothing connects these two scenes. After Chance talks to the camera again, we cut to him standing beside a road. He accepts that his friend won't show up and decides to take a walk near the forest (why not just go home?). Soon after, an invisible apparition starts pushing Chance around. He begins to run... deeper into the forest. He proclaims the apparition to be "The Force Of Darkness". It cuts back to Chance sitting on his couch. He calls his friends even though We can see he's on the contacts app. Although we can see that nobody answered, Chance asks, "Who is this?" (He has no reason to think his friends wouldn't answer). The same loud soundbite from earlier plays again before Chance tosses his phone and hyperventilates. He then goes to sleep. (Which is a very rational choice after realizing a dark malevolent spirit is out to get you).
Chance then has nightmares of himself being "possessed". He wakes up in a panic and for nearly two minutes, he just looks distraught. He decides to enter the bathroom and soon after, The "Force of Darkness" forces him to choke himself. What plays next is a stolen video of a woman acting possessed which is followed by three minutes of black screen.
Fire Bending
Chance uploaded a video six days later of him "bending fire" as he poorly green-screens some purple fire into the screen with no sound, and the 2nd attempt had him fire bending with a fist.
Cyraxx Argues With Himself
On January 3rd, 2019, Chance uploaded a video of him "arguing" with himself, that's about as lazily written as it was edited. All he did was speak to a blank wall and horizontally flip the footage to make it look like he's talking to his clone, all in a glorious 360p, 15fps experience.
There's no synopsis in the world that would do this short video justice, so instead, we're just gonna highlight a bunch of legendary quotes.
Chance (2): "Fuck you."
Chance (1): "Fuck you too."
Chance (2): "Sorry, not gay. So... yeah, I'm not gonna fuck you."
Chance (1): "... Eh, you never know- you might be... There's a first time for everything."
Chance (2): "Wait, are you gay?"
Chance (1): "No, just saying- there's a first time for everything."
Chance (2): "... Whatever, just shut up and go on somewhere.." Chance (1): "Like... where am I supposed to go? We're both stuck in this... three-dimensional world."
Chance (1): "That's right, you are crazy."
Chance (2): "Heh... says the one with the fucked up haircut."
Chance (1): "Yeah well... I may have a fucked up haircut, but at least I'm not a midget."
Chance (2): "Yeah... when we get home, your ass is mine."
A Short Film About Suicide
In 2019, Cyraxx created a short film with Heather Krout to raise awareness on suicide, putting emphasis on cyberbullying. In this film, Cyraxx plays a character named Dwayne who hangs himself in the closet after being harassed online. Of note, Cyraxx uses a clip from a JaymeNicole livestream, where she talks about his abusive and violent behavior, and reframes it as the so-called bullying pushing "Dwayne" to take his own life, making it plainly obvious that this “PSA” was just another grift for sympathy online.
Protocol Bigfoot

| Cyraxx, said as he was booting up Flow AI to retrieve the clips from his "movie"[1]. | ||
After a hiatus of six years, great director Chance returns with an animated film "project"[2] titled Protocol Bigfoot. The product itself was rather predictably entierly AI-generated, as Cyraxx seemingly intended to string together 30-seconds clips created with the free trial version of Flow AI, with no care whatsoever for flow or consistency. The only material Cyraxx posted was an incoherent AI-generated trailer about robots and gorilla-like creatures spouting random one-liners, alongside two completely unrelated clips of AI slop about gorillas and wookiee knock-offs engaging in such humorous shenanigans like stealing beef jerky or eating alien hot pockets in space.
Just like every big "project" he undertakes, it was unceremoniously abandoned when Cyraxx either got bored, or when his free trial for the AI software expired.
